Vulkan in Rainbow Six Siege Tested - A major boost for modern graphics cards

1440p Testing  

At 1440p we see similar results to our 1080p comparisons. Turing, Polaris, Vega and RDNA graphics cards continue to benefit greatly from Rainbow Six: Siege’s use of Vulkan, but Nvidia’s older Pascal architecture fails to see any major changes. 

Below we see that Nvidia’s RTX 2080 Ti benefits a lot more from using Vulkan at 1440p, further suggesting that the graphics card’s 1080p performance was CPU limited.
